Students and staff can now get vaccinated on all three campuses of the University of the Free State.

For the month of October, Clicks Pharmacy will be doing vaccinations ( Johnson and Johnson) on the Bloemfontein Campus for staff and students. Clicks Pharmacy staff will be available on the campus in EXR 1(enter from the basketball courts), next to the screening site, on Wednesdays from 09:00 to 13:00. 

The following should be noted: 
• The COVID-19 vaccine will be administered free of charge.
• You can speed up the process by registering on the COVID-19 Vaccination Programme registration portal before you get to the vaccination site. Staff will be on stand-by to register those who have not yet done so.  
• Please bring positive identification, such as an ID book or driver’s licence.
• You will receive proof of your first vaccination via a vaccine card.

In addition to the vaccination site at the Universitas Academic Hospital in Bloemfontein, staff and students can also get vaccinated on the Qwaqwa and South campuses. Take note that the Qwaqwa Campus vaccination site is open on Wednesdays only.

UFS saddened by the passing of MEC for Health
2012-12-03

03 December 2012

The University of the Free State (UFS) is deeply saddened by the passing of the MEC for Health in the Free State provincial legislature, the Honourable Ms Fezi Ngubentombi.

She had attended a rally and the launch of a day-care centre with pres. Jacob Zuma in Qwaqwa on Saturday. MEC Ngubentombi and one of her bodyguards, Sergeant BC Motaung, were killed in the single vehicle crash on Saturday night just outside Bloemfontein.
 
MEC Ngubentombi was a strong partner in the development and transformation of the Health Sciences at the UFS and will be sorely missed. She also supported the UFS with the work done around the Charlotte Maxexe Memorial Lecture.
 
In the words of the Vice-Chancellor and Rector, Prof. Jonathan Jansen: “MEC Fezi, as she was fondly known, was a decent human being, a committed activist, and the consummate professional in the way we worked together to advance health and health education in the province.”
